AppletNeXtMidas can run as an applet within a web page. Because of browser security concerns, NeXtMidas capabilities are limited in this mode, and it may be necessary for you to manually enable permissions the first time a NeXtMidas-containing web page is opened on a given computer. The procedure depends on whether your browser is Internet Explorer or Netscape. It is not necessary to execute the nmstart script before opening a web page that runs NeXtMidas as an applet. The web page invokes the MApplet class. A number of Applet parameters are available from which you can configure your NeXtMidas applet environment. The available options are: AUX - The write AUX and read AUX list using the syntax "<write> <read list>" (default is "RAM RAM|DAT"). CMD - The command to run (e.g. "MYAPP"). HOME - The home directory to use. NMROOT - Overrides the default NMROOT setting (which matches the codebase). NMS - The macro to use in place of nmstartup.mm. OPTS - The option trees to add to the path (e.g. "UCL,SYS"). WIN - Window name (e.g. "MYWIN"). This is the special ID that can be passed via a switch Look at this simple example which opens a NeXtMidas graphical shell (primitive) inside a web page: <html> <head> <title>NeXtMidas Terminal Applet</title> </head> <body> <applet codebase=".." code="nxm.sys.libg.MApplet" width="100%" height="100%"> <param name="WIN" value="TERMINAL"> <param name="CMD" value="SHELLGUI/WIN=TERMINAL"> </applet> </body> </html>Here is another example of an applet which requires multiple option trees and the /WIN.PANEL= switch to properly embedded the DEMO macro inside
the applet window on the web page.
<html> <head> <title>NeXtMidas Demo</title> </head> <body> <applet codebase=".." code="nxm.sys.libg.MApplet" name="Demo" width="100%" height="100%"> <param name="WIN" value="DEMOWIN"> <param name="OPTS" value="DSP,SYS"> <param name="CMD" value="DEMO/WIN.PANEL=DEMOWIN/THEME=BROWSER"> </applet> </body> </html> Additional examples are located in the |
